9:30 this morning to an half-hour is gunned down just 20 points on the dow jones industrial average. price of oil below $50 a barrel. that maybe has something to do a stock split the two are going down ever so slightly. our time is up, the neil cavuto ready to take it away. it is yours. neil: thank you very much. but the greatest document dump whatever you want to call it, maybe the clinton campaign shouldn't get ahead of itself or i and all the red states are locking down an even bigger electoral vote majority to not only run up the clock, but run out the electoral votes. former bush 43 chief of staff karl rove on that strategy seems to imply that they can really run up some big numbers in the hope that will run up the democratic vote in key states, and maybe turn the senate possibly even now is the goal. but they might be premature

given the latest allegations come in through these wiki leagues. what do you think? >> i think it might be a little premature. the clinton campaign is running television that you doesn't stave. that indicates these are the same that are counting on their battleground states. there is her trumpet spending most of his time in similar states are florida, north carolina, ohio and hopeless. he was in new hampshire on friday that he hasn't been there for a while. he's in nevada for the debate. also in wisconsin this week. he was a man in the second district last week and these appear the four states is most concentrating on. but that means is he is clearly focused on winning all of the romney states which include north carolina given 206 electoral votes. if he wins florida, ohio, pennsylvania that gets into 273 from a very narrow path. they are trying to take away

north carolina. once ohio, florida, pennsylvania, 258. if they play at arizona and florida, the state they might play in command that could drive down to 231 even if he wins pennsylvania, ohio and florida. trade to the clinton campaign is all the same it's over and hillary clinton herself can afford to take a few days off of the campaign trail to concentrate on a debate that would essentially seal the deal for her. the polls look very good for her but i've seen candidates in similar positions over the day they started mailing it in. tom dewey comes to mind. >> this may have been something else. they've made a conscious decision she could be off the trail focused on preparing for the debate so she consisted of performance that she could. he's been stagnant since the over seven. he's been stacked in he's been back to meld his controversies

over the original hollywood excess tape and then last week did not go on the offense against her. as long as he is continuing to attack fellow republicans are defending themselves, they can keep her off the trail and popper out after the debate. neil: i'm curious to know yours remind me these national polls in the battleground states and how they are faring to get the alert for about any talk about donald trump's narrower path to winning this. but it's still a path. is it getting tends because a lot of the term folks say it's not nearly as bad as any of the polls show that in this close battleground states for the cap is two to four points we think that sars, that the underreporting vote is rampant because a lot of a lot of people won't admit to being trump voters. do you agree with that? >> i'm not yet convinced of

that. i do know his position in ohio, florida, north carolina and pennsylvania has deteriorated sometimes over the last six weeks in ohio and florida over the case of the last couple weeks. he is martial or worse off in all four of those states. he needs to carry ohio, north carolina, florida and pennsylvania to have the optimal path to the array. if he doesn't want being of which is the one who's furthest behind in coming days to make up 17 electoral votes by a combination of nevada with six in iowa with six in new hampshire with four in maine with one or tossed in wisconsin in the time. it's getting really complicated. not up on tv and not advertising and not driving home consistently and anti-hillary message on the stubborn and has earned media and paid media is

problematic. he needs to get on the offense. this issue but it's a rigged election only appeals to the people are ready for it. histogram undecideds encumber people who weakly linked to her. neil: a lot of those voters who won't admit to being trump voters depending on the poll it wouldn't be enough to swing 11 or a point at good if you don't mind hanging out we have some developments with their own blake burman and what he's discovered in this latest e-mails. >> hi there, neil. the clinton campaign showed john podesta has stopped on this day and there's likely a reason why. official account overnight comes the following. someone internet link has been severed by a state party. we've activated the appropriate contingency plans. no state party has taken responsibility but for now the daily dose of clinton related

the mouse appears to have stopped but no doubt about it as you have been talking about the damage most certainly for clinton and the appearance these e-mails has already been done. the latest batch of the weekend included transcripts of clinton's speeches to goldman sachs. mm ,-com,-com ma clinton gives off a friendly tone towards wall street. for example this is the transcript. there has to be an understanding of how what happens on wall street has such broad consequence is not just for domestic that the global economy. what that has to be given to the process and transaction in regulation so that we don't kill or maim what works. ironically in another speech when asked about the value of having someone with a business background she was asked and she said the following. i would like to see successful business people run for office. she goes on to say the memorable phrase from a member of the senate. you can maybe be rented but

never bought and is important to have people with physics variances. end quote. maybe she never thought she'd be running against donald trump. the fbi released additional nostrum its investigation into clinton's state department e-mail years in the notes here suggest that state department undersecretary patrick kennedy try to change classification of clinton e-mail and there is pressure to engage in a quid pro quo which would involve access for agents and forbidden areas that would then benefit the fbi. according to the interview notes on one e-mail was discussed at a meeting, according to the agent whose name has been redact it, kennedy spent the next 15 minutes debating classification of the e-mail and attempting to influence the fb marketing. neil: we should stress the fbi never did that to the quid pro quo argument would be clear in there. thank you, my friend.

back to carl, it really depends whether this is like a tree falling in the forest and the media is not there to cover it. it is getting at here. wild stuff. what do you make of that? >> media is not going to cover it must donald trump makes uncovering. last week we had the exchange of e-mails between top officials of the clinton campaign and outside advisors at the center for american progress. their anti-catholic and mocked evangelicals and conservative catholics in particular. why did donald trump makes at the point of the next day? make it the afternoon. same today. we now have this thing where patrick kennedy the under secretary for administration at the state department is trying to browbeat the fbi in the middle of the investigation in order to lessen the likelihood hillary clinton faces everyday. patrick kennedy is also the guy who in her name was the guy who

turned him on the security request upgrades for libya to lead to the disaster of benghazi. last week we had all this stuff about the clinton foundation that came out about the clinton foundation in touch with the state department to get special benefits for clinton foundation advisers. why did donald trump spend the next day quoting hillary clinton's words and january 9, 2009 when she was beaten in her confirmation hearing were democrats and republicans alike said you need to be sensitive to impropriety of the state department must never happened. that was sad that richard lugar of indiana and second by the chairman of the foreign relations committee senator john kerry of massachusetts. i hope that he takes these e-mails, these leaks and starts raising significant questions.

neil: he comes across very thin skin. the charges are false by all means this got to go after them. the fact of the matter is he's missing something that is far more valuable. >> i have a slight disagreement. if these charges were false, they are better dealt with by him saying this is false then there will be more like this popping up in my responders will be the same. i've said enough because the re he insists. when he stood up the other day instead of one particular woman, just look at her. obviously i've never her. that just sort of cause lots of people to grade on edge. better to get rid of it, rise above it and stay focused. he has 22 days before the election is over. a million and a half people have voted. hundreds of thousands of more each day from here on out. this is missing a valuable opportunity. if he loses the election hands want to blame but himself. the media is not going to pay attention unless he makes them.

neil: is said to him has got to do it. >> before the debate and after the debate. every single moment matters at this point in a presidential campaign. neil: the smart by karl rove used to tell me if you're not on offense, you're an defense. thank you. appreciate it. to carl's point, the media seems to be paying nearly that to all of this e-mail stuff. average folks like you online, very different story. ...as a combination of see products.. and customers. every on-time arrival is backed by thousands

election. one thing that struck like a sore thumb is that the media did cover a candle to any hillary clinton e-mail scandal. google trend is another matter. average folks like you and me who are going on there and searching anything having to do with mechanics versus trump allegations, even trump women could look at that comparison. a high percentage of folks up and down with the reports coming down. much more interest in math than the much lower yellow line, lower than the red line shows the trump scandals did what is wrong with this picture? you are interested in this. you are into this. the men's tree media not so much. a longshot to media critic. what do you make of that? >> well, you're exactly right. this is once again for what it's calling the rate of action.

the media is so stacked against them and they are focusing on every allegation made against 10. as you point out the public is much more interested taste on google searches anyway in finding out the latest wikileaks revelations. neil: i'm not saying -- either open a bank with these allegations. have at it. that's fine. at least maybe show have concealed for this wiki leak allegations because they are to put it mildly disturbing and constitutionally disturbing. i've never seen a disconnect like this. >> that's true. but i see a different thing. they are missing the point in a

way looking for a smoking gun in the latest revelations. if they are looking for what should have disqualified there is plenty of them around. go back and look at coleman's testimony and his press conference right before the announcement there's no resolve prosecutor to prosecute the case. she handled classified information on an unsecured server including information. it's really a distraction in a way that benefits mrs. clinton because they keep reporting it because they say this just confirms things that we are to knew about mrs. clinton. neil: you are right about that. that's how it's explained. get with every new batch were discovered.

it sounds a lot more pragmatic and compromising my mama like her has b@it sounds a lot more c and compromising my mama like her has been about making deals than the much more rabid left-winger who speaks before the microphone. it does offer the possibility that when it comes to being prayed or been more from a to s. that they're not all. she invites an intriguing alter ego for that. it does get back to an interest in google users trying to find out what the deal is, who the real hillary clinton is. >> yes. the reason "washington post" abc polls show that 33% find mrs. clinton trustworthy and honest while 42% find trump trustworthy and honest. i'm not sure how much we can trust the polls this year. this is an irregular gear. neil: a lot of people tom is

analogous to the polling going on before brexit, and in colombia where the president cobbled together a deal with rebels. it looked like he was going to pass there. it ends up losing. there is a history where what seems to be understated populist rage ends up being a few populist rage this country as well. >> definitely. i think so. i think people are afraid to a knowledge that they support trump because they will then have to defend his actions, comments and they don't want to do that. i think they don't trust pollsters that they don't trust the media and we will see if there's enough of them that rise up on election day to overcome the rigged system and put trump in office. and then what happens is obama, what's he going to do it that point if that happens?

neil: roger, thank you very much. i mention the columbia example. they were expecting not to be a walk. the voters in colombia would overwhelmingly approved stl with rebels that would finally have brought peace to that country and it was expected by 20% margin. it lost by about 1.5%. soit lost by about 1.5%. so it's a reminder as if we needed that often times people will say one thing and do another. people interpret polls any which way they can to advantage themselves. i mention those examples because their area dipoles put out by erudite organizations that have been erudite read on what is going on until average folks said no. stick around.

also a possible quit pro quote. this comment on the candidates in this race got a lot of peoples attention. mrs. clinton has chosen to his aggressive rhetoric in relation to russia. mr. trump on the contrary calls for cooperation at least when it comes to the fight against terrorism. of course we welcome anyone who wants to work with us. counter extremism project senior policy advisor's terry miller on all of that. he just said that his preferred candidate was donald trump. >> when they look at it, we look at all the payment that have come up from the white house, department of homeland security, tractor national intelligence. everyone seems to be singing that it's russia behind the attack. ne nefarious

groups. north korea could do this, china could do this. >> absolutely. i think it's pretty decisive. the question was first there senior officials about the times russian officials have light fingerprints. then i want attribution of the attacks of these outside groups to basic way carry out the attack and basically what they do is they have an outside group carried out the basically what will happen -- sarin was in my earpiece here. they can attribute it to another group and say their eyeballs. during the same thing given it to wikileaks as well. neil: i hope you can still hear me. i apologize for the audio issue. one thing i noticed in that the clinton folks commit to campaign ad out of this by saying it's clear of vladimir putin prefers donald trump and anyone he likes you should hate america.

>> investing clear. russia has a history of trying to manipulate elections. this is something they want to create uncertainty and basically showed they can influence public opinion and give implements to what happened after the election so based on the outcome of the election the russians can have officials are worried that they might have more information on officials and more information they can release. part of this is after the election but also to make whoever's elected worry about what you come out after the election. >> if we are threatening hacking them back, which i think we are without putting it in so many words, where is this going? >> that's a really good question. basically the united states has not had a clear cyberpolicy on how to respond to these. the administration has actions they can take. sanctions come indictments, respond with cyberresponse which mean doing a data breach on

russian officials to get information from russians as well. this is something the administration is top about. it's been reported that might not announce when i'll do it. they have a variety of options they can carry out. neil: thank you very much. in the meantime, everyone worried about a banking price or banking meltdown given what's going on in wells fargo. bank of america to save the day? not so fast. but you'll be glad to see it here. fidelity -- where smarter investors will always be. if only the signs were as obvious when you trade. fidelity's active trader pro can help you find smarter entry and exit points and can help protect your potential profits.

neil: before i get into the banking, everyone seems to think those national polls are toast. i like to look at these battleground states and how relatively close they are notwithstanding a lot of these polls were dead post the latest worse by donald trump. they are separated by four points so an ohio donald trump slate has expanded a little bit in north carolina. forget about virginia been out of reach. nevada will be going with the next big debate. that one is statistical as well.

i mention all of the above because it includes these latest and shows it's very easy for the pointer to within the margin of error to flip from hillary clinton to donald trump and you could argue that case of hillary clinton. we don't see much talk or hear much talk. the economics professor )-right-paren bergen charlie gasparino. begin with you. this notion that the battleground state that still quite competitive and the damage that a lot of the trump folks feared is not registered and senate are entirely. he did get the feelings from voters that they want a reason that they won a recent developer donald trum donald trump and not hillary clinton. donald trump is headed pretty damaging couple of weeks.

the wiki link stinton. donald trump is headed pretty damaging couple of weeks. the wiki link stuff is nasty. the latest revelations are obvious. fbi quid pro quo's. unless this is a fake e-mail or whatever, that's really bad stuff at the top of government. that does not bode well for her. if you look at the national polls, it doesn't look like she gets much above 45. he drops when it drops. neil: gary kaltbaum for much of that depends on the media letting people know what is coming out letting people know what is coming out and then there's a remote as to do that and we showed earlier in the broadcast the percentage of minutes devoted to the trump scandals versus the hillary clinton allocation revelations. if you're going to go after one, go after both paired by a factor of seven no one is the other way. >> considering the media lockout of wikileaks in the 24/7 on

trump and these women, it is utterly amazing what the numbers are. i say she read in central florida. just about half a mile away from here. the i-4 corridor is going to speak a lot and whoever wins florida will come away. he's going to need to win florida. neil: only authority and say that he had a kid you. if i'm hillary hillary clinton and the cannot miss ended a clear sense for an they are running out the clock and hoping a lot of these allegations do not come out in droves. they're also hoping we can stave off a possible financial crisis. deutsche bank wants to cut back on a lot of the u.s. operations that does raise fears of another banking crisis but if they can

stave that off until after november life will be better. they are just trying to sit on this. after that moment. >> if you look at a global level the amount of global debt outstanding is higher than it was before the financial meltdown. if the 225% of global gdp they don't want to talk about this because we are in a real problem with debt that higher growth slow in interest rates of flow, that is a recipe for disaster. trump should be talking about this all the time. this is certainly help him out because this is a dinosaur for a bomb and therefore clinton. >> i always think you should get back in this country in the world. we are out of money but he doesn't do that. he has an opportunity here maybe with the debate to refocus or recalibrate. much depends whether it's willing to even let them do that. what is your sense on the ground

about what he has to do on all of these above issues. >> you know, you had frank lutz underside of the show and i think he laid it out perfectly and that's what i hear from operatives here. get back to the issues and hammer her on economic issues and try to not get caught up in the silly stuff. that has been his father position is the silly stuff. he's got a lot to work with. deutsche bank will be bailed out by the german government. i don't wells fargo financial meltdown. he's got a lot of other great issues here, the fact we are barely growing us an economy. the fact that underemployment is way out. the fact that hillary clinton is despised by so many people. think about it. negatives are off the chart. he's got stuff to work with and not let every operative i spoke to in the last 24 hours here. he's got like a base of support. >> rabid base of support.

we were keeping track of you know how technologically hip by him. it's amazing. one of the things i noticed is when you talk about google trends, these stories on wikileaks and hillary clinton revelations are trending that you wouldn't see it in the general media. when it comes to average folks trying to find out more, they are doing that by a huge factor over anything trump related. what do you make of that? >> i think if trump is smart in the next debate, he has a laundry list of things that came out of wikileaks. this seems like the whole clinton campaign antennas, antenna.and to move towards the economy, the secretary of the treasury of jack lew came out last week and said everything was great. deficits are fine, death or find a way to set up for sustainable growth forever.

he had upon that about $9 trillion of new debt over the last eight years or 20 trillion total. if we keep going will be at 30 trillion eventually everything will blow up in nothing will matter. neil: hillary clinton is all about if you have the big league win this out and hopefully nothing up. will she be so lucky? >> it is lucky if trump doesn't go after. he has to make his own lot. he has to go after these issues. not only jobs to grow health care. there's a lot here. he makes his own lot. if she gets to way back, he kind of gives the election to her and he doesn't need to do that. neil: guys, thank you all very much. meanwhile, a north carolina republican office fire bomb. donald trump has a pretty good you who did it. i want you to ask yourself this.

would be criminally charged in the military would be court-martialed. hillary clinton acts as though she's above the law, therefore not fit to serve as commander-in-chief. again, the clinton campaign said there was no quit pro quote. so much to do essentially about nothing. certainly on google trends right now more than the establishment media. meanwhile, still trying to find out who is behind this firebombing in north carolina republican operation. donald trump treated animals in north carolina just north carolina just firebombed our office at orange county because we are winning north carolina. on the phone with us now, and hillsboro, north carolina tom stephens. they are, do we know anything more about this, who might have been behind this? >> not at this point. we have our local police ensures that work with the fbi, atf, a

lot of different law enforcement jurisdiction are investigating that. but we do know is saturday night somebody threw liquid through a window and pretty much earned out the inside of the office so fortunate that the fire is self extinguish. the perpetrators spray painted this very hateful statement outside of another building and that's what a businessman found the next morning and recorded it to the police and we've been going from there. neil: do you know whether there were cameras that eventually we might be able to see who might have been there? >> well, we are certainly --

this particular area that you're not familiar with this kind of buildings that were part of a theme park or tourist attraction. very old wooden buildings. there's not much in the way of cameras. i think the camera surveillance is fairly limited. it is astonishing given all these old buildings that they extinguish. we feel very fortunate to have this enormous praise. neil: i know you condemned us. she condemned this. i know is although this this is a very big democratic area. there's a lot of ill will and that air towards this republican

establishment in this heavily democratic area. do you think that is something to do with it? >> well, i certainly hate the rhetoric that has been going on. certainly the republicans in this particular county are a minority and i just find it troubling when people can even speak out. that being said i don't think it represents democrats are anybody. a lot of the local democrats before the evening was over could raise $10,000 to get that back up and running. it's much more representative of the community. universally we've had to let it go or other affiliation folks

have been condemning this acts, feeling that it's absolutely wrong. we need to have civil discourse. we need to have civic institutions and not representative of anybody from any political persuasion. neil: were you surprised? i know you're trying to stay above the fray and deal with getting to the bottom of this. much more reaction to donald trump calling perpetrators animals then there was the fact it was spray painted on walls with comments about republicans called. you find that weird? >> i find it weird and distressing and it's just coming in now, it's ugly and has no place in this community. last april in front of a church me pride flag so. the same evening there were some

anti-capitalist rhetoric was spray painted on the democratic headquarters just a few miles down this tree. so these things are always disturbing. they're always do a certain degree surprising. you know, generally this community in particular has got a lot of national reputation for being a good place to live, a community that just really gets along and i just don't think this is representative of this community, but certainly let me tell you. we have to acknowledge it and recognize that there are folks who will step out of line. we are going to do everything we can to investigate this and prosecute folks. this is as many folks, republicans, democratic and others have said this is affront to democracy and democratic processes and not something we can tolerate.

neil: quid pro quo isn't cutting it with chaffetz who is calling on president obama and secretary kerry to remove patrick kennedy from his position right now the state department over classification again of these emails where there was a talk back and forth, hey, guys, maybe we can find a way not to say that these were classified or reclassified or not classified. the fbi never went through with that, wouldn't do that. the fact that kennedy in these emails were petitioning for that, didn't get what he wanted is good enough for congressman

chaffetz, nunuz say you have to fire this guy. you can't have that kind of stuff. washington examiner with us right now. the biggest single development we have seen yet leaked out. much depend obviously on how the media perceives this but this is , i think, illegal. what do you make of this? >> i can see no situation where president obama and secretary kerry defend an employee requesting doctor the classification levels in order to protect hillary clinton from the political fallout that may have followed her private e-mail scandal. i mean, this is as you said unsettling and further undermines confidence in agencies and patrick kennedy should definitely face consequences for that. neil: i think strategy -- and we

will get this from polls, the hillary clinton folks are feeling cocky, they can run out the clock and hope that this doesn't create more a dust-up than it has, what do you think of it? >> it's going to be difficult for them to become come -- complaisant if further emails -- i'm sorry, in the fbi note we see state department official was describing a quid pro quo situation. but still for somebody at the state department to be describing something like that, this really does lend creditability to the argument of hillary clinton's opponent all along that corruption surrounds her as a candidate and efforts by the state department and by the obama adminiration to help, you know, assess the political damage that she might face per private e-mail practices. this is damage to go her campaign and this will continue to develop.

neil: it's totally apart from the wiki thing but what amazed me you have someone high up there trying to talk about reclassifying and classify exchange when, in fact, we were told in the beginning that mrs. clinton was unaware that they were marked one way or the other or nothing that was marked classified c or otherwise, so obviously it was for someone that high up to be saying, could you change it, right? >> right. there's a realization that the documents and the emails that hillary clinton that were going through private e-mail server were classified. she may have said that she didn't realize what c meant at the top of the document. neil: they were clearly marked whether big c or little c, you have a high-up person that's saying, you know, can we just get that out of there? that's just not good. >> right n one case he said can

rereduce to b-9 so i can bury the document in the basement of state department so it's never seen again. i mean, this is incredible to be seeing this in the notes that the fbi took and it's going to be interesting to see how the clinton campaign addresses this, whether they distance themselves from patrick kennedy, what kind of defense they can offer after seeing fbi notes. neil: can you believe if fbi would reply and change but they didn't do that. gabi, thank you very much. >> thank you. neil: it depends on what gets covered. the media won't cover something like this and there's a pattern to this bhiefer so much that donald trump thinks it's rigged and rig is an issue how someone like ronald reagan would handle this kind of a blitz. i asked his former budget director about it.

do you think ronald reagan, do you think he could have survived this media back in 1980? >> i doubt it. back in the summer of 1980 it was the same charge, he was a wild man, we didn't want his finger on the button, the way he prepared hymn, worked on his lines over and over, try today figure out how to communicate in a way that would be compelling. this guy isn't doing any of this. he's decide today take the whole ship down. neil: all right. it's not too late to change. the former bush campaign adviser, that's what they all seem to be saying, that donald trump needs to be doing, focus on this, focus less on the women and allegations that seem to be timed to come out, what do you think? >> you're comparing the actor and aggressor, niel. one distinction from that era and this era the national media

back then enjoyed a ratings for trust and media of 75 to 80%. you know, today they don't and donald trump, i think, is leveraging the mistrust of the national media particularly with the disclosure that there's insidious collusion between the media and the establishment i leets -- elites and it's rather extraordinary. i think he has no choice at this point, niel. by doing so he's going to really rally his base and also attract a lot of independents who do not trust the media. neil: how did ronald reagan handle this stuff? there were a lot of folks that say, hey, you're just a dumb actor, you costarred with a chimp. it seems if i were -- you're

much older than me, not. [laughter] neil: he didn't seem to care. >> yeah, he dealt with such a natural way to redirect the discussion to jimmy carter's failed policies. we were in a bad place for the economy back then. i think it was easier for reagan to be able to leverage that bad record at that time. now a lot of people including myself would say we are in just as bad shape today, the economy and national security, we are in the midst of recovery as pathetic as it is. the challenge here now today relative to what reagan was able to do with such class and artfullness is for trump to be able to expose the collusion to talk at the same time, talk about his way forward and his way forward is tax cuts.

look, this is a war in a battle for power between the establishment and outsider just like it was with reagan. the difference is there are such obvious collusion with the media and they don't really care anymore. they don't care about their trust rating. neil: you make a compelling case as you always do. how do you make that case without sounding like you're wining or criticizing the rest? >> i agree. there are those who say, well, it's been this way a long time with the media. that doesn't make it right. you have to find the right balance of showing that he's tough and fighting for the american people and policy positions taken to do that and with tax policies and hillary clinton has accomplished nothing in 30 years and she's got the media in her back pocket. they're working together and now we have the proof that they're doing so. it's all balanced, niel. i think you have to have a balance message. neil: we will see what he says.

>> thanks, niel. neil: another poll that seems to show that he's not connecting in that way, that is donald trump trailing by 12 points. that covers a questioning period from october 14 to 16th which would, in fact, cover the latest allegations from women as well as some of the wikileaks allegations that aren't getting a fraction of the press but adam shapiro in tampa right now on how swing states aren't necessarily going the way these national numbers are going. adam. adam: that's correct because hillary clinton here in florida has a 3 and a half point lead over mr. trump but the other issues you take a look at some video obviously that we have of mr. trump and hillary clinton. when you look at the number of people who have been registered, the republicans in florida have been working very hard to register more people and they've actually flipped about 9 counties from had been democratic party majorities to republican majority in some of these counties. we spoke to tony ledbetter,

chairman of the gop county party in volusia county, daytona beach, here is what he told us. >> there's a shadow vote out there. there's many, many people that -- if you're just registered to vote in the last year, the pollsters can't find you. these new people are coming on board, they are going to vote for one person and that's donald j. trump. adam: people talk about polls getting them wrong and there's also brexit. there's also governor rick scott not expecting to win race according to polls but guess what, he did. we spoke with joe who is the gop vice chair and also the trump state chair in florida and here is what he told us about the poll and that previous race. >> that race was supposed to be over. governor scott was supposed to lose and what happened you saw all small counties, rural counties in the middle of the state shift from duval all the

way from panhandle went big for rick scott. i expect the same thing to happen in this race with donald trump. adam: of course, niel, we will find out if the shadow-voter theory plays out on the election . i have to tell you in they are neck and neck. neil: thank you very much. we talk about wikileaks and other revelations and what hillary clinton says away when open microphone, is she going lead to trade wars. that hillary, in those emails, that's the kind of hillary clinton i like? let me explain.

i think that in those emails, at least, she is far more pragmatic, far mar -- more to open trade, far more interesting in advancing capitalism than she has ever relayed on the stage, let's say debating bernie sanders, if she were to win, i'm hoping that the hillary clinton in those emails is the hillary clinton that would lead this country, not the hillary clinton that speaks with microphone. that's two very different clintons. scott brown on that after this it's not uncommon for autistic kids to flap their hands.

and so when i saw that, that was completely disqualifying. i'm a republican, but this election is so much bigger than party. my son max can't live in trump world. so i'm crossing party lines and voting for hillary. i don't always agree with her, but she's reasonable. and she's smart. she can work with people to solve problems. i want to be able to tell my kids that i did the right thing when it really mattered. i'm hillary clinton and i approve this message.

20 percentage points. scott brown win kennedy's speech, i guess scott brown did. could we be seeing that happening. if that were to repeat itself, it might come back and owe itself to wikileaks revelation. regardless of the fact that you get two different hillary clintons, elected despite all, i hope hillary clinton's emails leading the countries and not the hillary clinton that's outliberal the likes of bernie sanders because he seems pragmatic and open with bankers and capitalist behind closed

doors and open for trade and very open in free to just sort of taking a lot of the regulations that are a lot in business ways very different than in the stump. what do you think? >> i don't like to hope. we hoped with president obama. we are going to elect this guy and he's really not going to be as radical as he says he's going to be, he's probably two or three times more radical using executive order, using terrible foreign policy, raising taxes, being a great divider instead of uniter, i think hillary clinton is going to be influenced so bad ly by bernie sanders who -- neil: in the scenario she wins, there are other scenarios if she doesn't, she might be asked to compromise because she wouldn't

have like barack obama when he came in? >> correct. when he did have the run at the table they had the super majorities. i don't think they are going to get that super majority. i came in and it was the 41st senator. they had two years to do climate change. minimum wage and bernie sanders led them on zero. they did nothing for two years. i got there and all of a sudden it's the republican's fault they can't get anything through. what i think you're going to see if we have the house and senate, which i hope we will, i'm hoping to help in that regard that you will have a hillary clinton and like bill clinton that's going to have to go to congress and actually get things done. will it happen, gosh, i hope so. our country is so badly but i'm not too hopeful actually. neil: let's say donald trump wins and surprises everybody. i have a feeling some

republicans, maybe establishment types who might fear that more than his losing. >> i think that some of that niel, certainly, they would rather have the power base in washington, d.c. and that's what, i think, the american people understand and recognize but my hope is that they will understand that if he wins we will have the house and the senate and we have an opportunity to put kind of the genie back in the bottle and work on things that people care about, border security, debt deficit, taxes, a whole host of things and it's a brainer. if you take the things happening with donald trump and focus on policies, sanctuary cities, borders, strong borders, lowering taxes -- neil: how do you deal when the media -- >> all of them.

[laughter] neil: praise and attention. but leaving that aside, she got all the attention. right now hillary clinton gets all the attention. >> all the good attention, too. neil: how did you counter that? >> i countered the old fashion way. i drove around the state and got to meet people. trump is countering that by not r rally back like hillary after rally and people recognize the support. there were another 3,000 waiting to get in. the energy is certainly there. it's unlike anything -- i saw it in my first election but it's back and people kind of get the fact that the media -- neil: maybe they were there for

you and trump was getting all the credit. >> the piling on, the piling on by the media on donald trump, i think it's having a backfiring effect. people are start to go feel a little bit sorry for the guy. neil: it is a pile. there's no doubt. scott brown, thank you very, very much. >> see you tomorrow in vegas. neil: but just be careful about consensus polls, even these national ones, double-digit gap and all the battleground states roughly in the same polling period that show two or three-point race. i only mention that and i mention the brexit vote and i mention german elections that are supposed to be close and blowout against the government and, of course, the colombia vote that was supposed to cuddle together end years of guerilla warfare.

ends up getting defeated. is that political rage not only here but globally? yeah. more to this recently, a 1954 mercedes-benz grand prix race car made history when it sold for a record price of just under $30 million. and now, another mercedes-benz makes history selling at just over $30,000. and to think this one actually has a surround-sound stereo. the 2016 cla. lease the cla250 for $299 a month at your local mercedes-benz dealer. mercedes-benz. the best or nothing.

neil: republicans aren't wasting a nano second replying to quid pro quo deal that the campaign was trying to work out or hillary clinton's people was trying to work out with the fbi on classifying certain documents. the more documents, this is from the rnc, the more we learn hillary clinton cannot be trusted with the job that's supposed to begin each day with a classified intelligence briefing. the obama administration blatant attempts to shield hillary clinton from accountability for her reckless conduct will only inflame the growing distrust americans have for their own government. suddenly quite explosive today. i don't know how it will fan out during the big debate on wednesday but what do you make of all of this?

>> well, certainly voters are for the most part decided and then you have a small chunk of voters who remain undecided who are leaning towards third-party candidates and those are the groups that the candidates should be focused on, making the case based on public policy on how they would lead the country. of course, this has been negative cycle that's turned off a lot of independent voters and women voters and those voters are ready to hear a positive agenda to close out election season. neil: i'm not envisioning that because both have ammunition to attack the other person. now, whether donald trump does that about the emails and fbi revelations is a whole separate thing or hillary clinton does it with these new women allegations on donald trump. you're saying that they would both benefit keeping to the issues that matter, not this stuff, even though this stuff particular with the fbi does

raise some potential criminality here. >> that's right. it's not irrelevant to talk about the personal background, the personal character of either candidates but it's not really a new feeling that voters have if they have a lack of trust or trust worthiness and either candidate that's been the case since the beginning when we knew these were the nominees, voters on both sides of the aisle, high majority of them say do not trust hillary clinton, they do not trust donald trump but coming to the home stretch here we look at the battleground state wher the election will be decided, we have seen that hillary clinton has stretched women voters to 15% percentage points now and donald trump desperately needs to be making a case, a positive case about the issues that women care about and those are the economy, health care, national security, foreign policy that he will be the leader that they can trust on those issues. of course, lack of trust -- neil: how are they not angry over allegations that they can't even see past that? i don't think women are that

one-dimensional. that's what hillary clinton is obviously hoping for. what do you think? >> many women have made up their mind. many women in hillary clinton's camp that they would never vote for donald trump and those who decided that it doesn't matter what has happened in donald trump's past or what he said, they are going to vote for trump anyway. it's the middle of the road women voters, undecided women voters who matter. the majority of women have heard about the tapes, they heard about the things that trump has said and about women and that's not going to be any new information coming into the next few weeks, so he needs to move on, he needs to find a way to pivot away from that information out there and focus on new information, for example, what his policy proposals are when it comes to student loans, health care, education, the costs that burden so many american families. women are the budgeters in the family and they need to know how they're going to get relief. neil: good catching them. >> thank you. neil: you wouldn't know it but isis could be on its heels right

president will be first to acknowledge this is a significant test given the population size and symbolic importance that isil invested in mosul among other things. so can that happen and how long would it take and in this battle for mosul that would not only be a big strategic victory but obviously important psychological one. jason beardsley, retired u.s. army master sergeant. honor to you. >> great to be back, neil. neil: how long does it take to happen? >> great question. we've seen a bit of successes on the ground in sort of a strategy that looks like military encirclement. cut off the city first. isolate the troops inside and you press in from the outer corridors. the problem is, mosul is urban environment. this is one of the most challenging environments we can deal with. in addition to that, isis has been preparing for this battle for two years. so they're rigging the urban environment with ieds. they're rigging it with obscuring targets from the air

with big fuel fires on the tires. they're colocating their assets with civilian population. think hospitals. when you think about the challenge to the american benefits, our overwhelming superiority in the air and on the ground that will be limited by how much isis has dug in with iraqi forces for the months ahead. look for months to take the city but look for four, five, six months to hold the city and clear it from those dangers. neil: do you think that iraqi forces now were better than they were years ago when they would treat, when they would retreat just in the face of isis militants coming their way? >> they have always been challenged. part of this is what's at stake for the irk -- iraqi forces. this premises military solution at its core but we don't have political solution. iraqi forces are influenced by

shia power. think about iran. we have a belligerent state in the iraqi government. they take ground in anbar province area dominated by sunnis. you will end up with contention here. the forces have the highest stakes, think shia, think iran, think iraq they will fight a little harder for this. when you look at kurds and peshmerga they have been terrific allies but they will have a endgame because they don't have a political or strategic stake. we have beginning game likely ground successes dithered away by our politicians and we've seen that over and over again. this goes to political leadership first and foremost. neil: donald trump said, switching gears slightly, jason he would be open to working with russia on teaming up against isis. largely in syria where he was making that claim. what do you think of that? >> you know, i think it is fraught with danger.

a lot of these players here are going to be dangerous, contentious sort of parties to this. what is most important that we state a clear vision for policy and strategy on the ground and it is not, can not just be related to isis. take into fact iran. think about this, we've given iran money and we've given them power and we win the fight in mosul and dominated by shia faction inside of iraqi government we've given them terrain too. wave give them u.s. blood and treasure, whether from donald trump or anyone else, we need clear policy aligned with the tactical successes. our military can do this we're excellent at this. we're preeminent force in the world but we need politicians that we're losing trust in have to defined the clear political strategy before we go into these tactical operations. absolutely necessary. neil: jason, you fought in mosul, so he knows what he speaks. >> yep. neil: very good seeing you, my friend. thank you. >> great to be back, neil.

i have a feeling a lot of evangelical voters are doing a lot of praying searching their soul who they can vote for in a year that seen negatives of both candidates the highest we've seen in recent memory. over 38 million of them of course out there. many, many of course in the last go round were not inclined to vote at all and, then negatives, barack obama, and mitt romney back then were a fraction of what these guys are seeing. to pastor mark burns what donald trump might have to do to earn their votes. pastor, what do you think? >> well, you know, first of all i think every -- i need for every evangelical, person of faith watching this broadcast to understand that you know we're not voting for donald trump's past flaws but we're voting for his present policies and it is so important, based off the wikileaks, that we know how hillary clinton and her anti-catholic, anti-religious remarks is proof to every believer, every person of faith

in this country needs to vote, why they need to vote for donald trump because, what, how she thinks, we're losing our freedom of religion. so we're not voting for just the person or the party but we're voting for the principles that donald trump represents. it is bigger than just donald trump. right now we have -- neil: pastor, there are a lost religious voters, say, on both sides, i don't like the choice. i'm offended by both. i might go with third party candidate route. what do you tell them? >> sure. well, again for the independents and for, again every person of faith, either the word of god that we believe, either works for all of us including donald trump or it works for none of us. in second corrineians, chapter 5 verse 17, all things are made new. old things are passed ad way. there are things from my past not proud of.

there are things from your past, neil, you are not proud of. neil: how did you know that, pastor? how did you know that? that is scary. >> you are human. neil: i know. i got to watch it. you know, pastor, one thing come up, rum trump always framed it, i said some obnoxious, horrible things, but he always pivots, saying, well she and by extension bill clinton have done horrible things but, how does that resonate with evangelical religious voters? then aren't you compounding the negative sentiment that is out there if you as a, are questioning the goodness of the person you're challenging for saying, i'm awful but she is more awful? >> right. well you know, my advice to mr. trump has always been to focus on the policies. that is what we're going to see in this next debate. i will also be in las vegas but,

the word to mr. trump is, focus solely on the policies. he is going to defeat hillary clinton and the liberal ideology of democratic party by the policies, the failed policies of hillary clinton and democratic party are obvious in fact. so for every evangelical, every person of faith watching, we understand donald trump has past flaws but we know that, in his past, but we do know hillary clinton in her present really, really is not a friend to people of faith. and for those who understand faith is such a big part of our life. and that is to the millions of, over 30 million that did not vote, you can not stay at home. you must, you must vote your faith. righnow vote your faith.com is pushing for every believer, every person of faith to vote your faith. you're not voting for donald trump's flaws. you're voting for principles that are -- it is bigger than donald trump. it is bigger than the republican parity or democratic party or hillary clinton. our way of life is at stake, right now we need to make sure

people be heard and that is what donald trump represents, the voice of americans. neil: sir, thank you very, very much. pastor mark burns. >> welcome back, neil. neil: thank you, my friend. i appreciate that i don't know how you knew there was controversial stuff in my past, it was just one dunkin' donuts run. i don't know how you found out about it. >> you're 100% chance of messing up as a human being, 100% you will mess up like all of us. neil: that is straight. i feel terrific about that but i know the lord's forgiveness. you know why i know the lord's forgiveness because charlie gasparino is still getting it done poolside in vegas, babeally! -- baby! ♪

a lot of suitors are vanishing. charlie gas on what he is hearing, connecting to a lot of other developments going on. how are you, charlie? >> neil, this town is made for you. clubs and wild clubs and pumpkin spiced lattes everywhere. neil: i hear it is one of the strongest markets for pumpkin-spiced lattes. >> they're waiting for you. i talked to a few people at starbucks. neil: they're waiting for you there. what is going on here? >> here is the interesting thing, as you know we were very skeptical that twitter was going to be sold. that there was a quote, unquote bidding war as cnbc and some other media outlets said and as you know we've been reporting for the past year that twitter was actually trying to get people involved and to get them interested in it to no avail. here what you hear from traders today in the aftermath of the fact that nobody is bidding on them right now, they think, the system was rigged, to use a

popular theme, that, donald trump did. they believe that the sources went out there and purposely planted stories with other media outlets that jacked up the price, meaning that, people were running around, reporting that there is an active bidding war going on. those were the reports. there was no bidding war. so insiders or possibly big positions can be blown out. we should point out i mentioned this a couple weeks ago. "barron's" did a story this weekend. i think this is real story. i think sec will look at this. it was just so con strived about this bidding war that never materialized -- contrived. here is what you have to do, look at insider sales. whether any company insiders sold anything, they would be crazy if they did amid all of this, but you look at some big positions. who blew out of some big positioning. that is what wall street is talking about. when you talk to traders right now given the fiasco what happened with the twitter bidding war which didn't happen, they're saying get sec in there

and look at some of the trading particularly in the options markets because there were some weird trading in options along the way. i would say this for small investors that got screwed on the deal, buying shares thinking it would be sold at 24, you only did that if you listened to cnbc, not fox business because we were skeptical from day one. neil: no you were. a lot of folks say it gets down to 13, 14, then yes some people might kick its tires, what do you think? >> yes, they are kicking the tire. i'm not saying there is zero interest, but the problem, twitter, as you know, during the debate on wednesday twitter, everybody will be tweeting about it. the consensus of who won will be on twitter before it is even on the network news. neil: you're right about that. >> but the company itself has not been able to figure out how to monetize that. it has not been able to figure out how to separate the good from the bad on twitter. there is a lot of good people. there is neil cavuto on twitter. there is a lot of bad people. there is charlie gasparino on twitter.

here's the things, the trolls themselves, there are tons of twitter trolls. that stops people -- neil: you would think they leverage that influence alone is something they can see. i don't know why they can't. >> salesforce looked at it concluded very fast and said no, everybody else has. it is hard to get user information. remember the facebook user experience is much different, right? lots of data. lots of friends. neil: while i got you, buddy, you're there for the big debate and everything else -- >> sure. neil: there is enormous pressure on donald trump to turn it around as he trails in some national polls. battleground states are much closer than appear but he has to really come out swinging and that maybe make up for the fact that the media doesn't follow the wikileak stuff or fbi revelations with the state department. >> right. neil: but he has got to do that, but can he do that? >> i talk to people that know him pretty well. he is not -- listen, he had a

good first 20 minutes on the first debate. neil: right. >> he rhetorically kind of beat hillary clinton in the second debate. she kind of laid-back and he went after her. but i think, you know, there is obviously something in these polls shows she hasn't made the sale, right? no matter what you say about him, she hasn't made the sale. he still has a chance of making the sale. i think what frank luntz said on your saturday program perfect. come out substantively. attack her sub sanity tiffly. put together a shadow cabinet. these people i will put in day one he is substantive guy. people that talk to donald that sort of granular detail is not part of his being. he is much more of a wild swinger and does not pay attention to detail. so we'll see. if he wants to win, that is what he should do. neil: when you work out, you're quite a workout -- as am i, we're two peas in a pod, but when you work out do you go

early in the morning because it gets hot there? what do you do? >> it is beautiful, i will tell you. this is the best time to be in vegas the, 75 degrees. i do work out early. i was in the gym around 6:00 today our time. neil: really? >> west coast time. but you know, it is beautiful. i can't wait to see you in your speedo, let me tell you something, by the pool. neil: well, i want to leave america with that image, my friend. charlie gasparino, i will be joining you tomorrow and all of you out there with pumpkin spiced lattes be there or be square. more after this. who lives here and flies to hong kong, to visit this company that makes smart phones, used by this vice president, who works across the street from this man, who creates software. they all have insurance crafted personally for them. not just coverage, craftsmanship. not just insured. chubb insured.

neil: all right. well, you might have heard jason chaffetz wants to make hay out of this quid pro quo stuff. obviously, the white house not taking the bait, saying they think chaffetz is trying to make a big deal of these things, but the questions are piling up, and it's more for his own career advancement. fact is, it is not going away, and the white house has some

serious explaining to do to say nothing of the hillary clinton campaign. so tomorrow we'll have a good gauge of this in las vegas, how that is playing out. and trish will be there as well. i have a feeling this is all going to explode at the same time. trish: it might, indeed. [laughter] thanks so much, neil. i'll see you in vegas. wikileaks founder, julian assange, says his internet access has been cut off by a, quote, state party. he's been releasing e-mails over the course of a week, damaging to hillary clinton and her campaign, so who could have possibly cut off his internet access? well, sounds like there are a lot of people that don't like those e-mails right now. i'm trish regan. welcome, everyone, to "the intelligence report." wikileaks tweeting out this morn, quote: julian assange's internet link has been intentionally severed by a state party. we have activated the appropriate contingency plans.
